Default Need Help Configuring Power FLARM Portable

I think the Flarm Portable only has the 1 data port so it would make sense for port two to be showing off - it doesn't exist.

Which port is clearnav on? You have port 2 switched off.

You should set the port speed to 57600. Port 1 is set to 19200.

best,
Evan

You've read on another thread that, since updating the firmware in
my PF Portable and updating the FlarmNet data file in my ClearNav
II, I've not been receiving Flarm targets on the ClearNav or on my
wife's Streak.



Yesterday, full of hope, I downloaded and installed the just
released FlarmNet file (data.fln).Â* No joy!



The next easiest thing to try would be to roll back the PowerFlarm
firmware from 6.67 to 6.60 but I suspect that that won't work.Â* I
would expect a message telling me that I have a newer version
installed.



So I figured I'd try to reset the configuration of the Flarm.Â* I
went to Flarm.com and started the Configuration Tool.Â* One of the
earliest questions asked was for the serial number of my unit and,
when I entered that, I got an error stating that the serial number
was invalid!Â* True, I did not have the unit with me at home to
check, but I do have the SD card and it looks to me like the serial
number is either 960 or 000960.Â* I entered both and got errors..Â* My
PFP00960.txt
file is here to be looked at for any advice.Â* I'm out of
ideas.
